Haryana Approves Setting Up of Cow Commission


Chandigarh, Sep 7 (IANS) The cow may be an important political and religious issue for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), but the ruling Congress in Haryana Tuesday took a lead in setting up a cow commission in the state.

It will also help in maximisng the use of organic manure in agriculture.

The commission will have 12 non-official members, including its chairperson and vice-person. The chairperson will be nominated by the government, and he non-official members will be chosen from among people engaged in cow welfare.

The commission will work for proper implementation of laws for prohibition of slaughter and cruelty to cows and suggest improvement in existing laws for making them more effective.

It will also supervise work of the institutions for scientific use of cow dung and urine to enhance their utility in agriculture, including soil fertility, bio-energy, bio-gas, bio-fertilizer, bio-pesticide and domestic use, the spokesman added.

The commission will take into custody the abandoned, stray, confiscated or seized cows from local organisations to maintain them.

    There are many important things to do but these politicians engaged in crazy works. There is much more things to do there is no proper electricity supply, many do not have houses, woman and young girls on the street often raped while sleeping, no proper sanitary system, no proper drinking water, no proper medical assistence, child labour, no proper education system in rural areas but these politicians engaged in making money and divert public attention engaged in there activities. Human being is much more precious than animals so give more attention to the human beings.

    In India politics can be kept alive by three things - cow, ram mandir/babri masjid and religion. Political parties know how to fool the public and when to hit the right cord...
